I really appreciate you coming and sharing your your stories.

I know that's hard.

And it's hard to hear, you know, because this is unacceptable, and you shouldn't have to go through this.

You should have timely information and communication about what's happening with your loved ones just as if somebody was a kid in school and something was happening at the school or or if any of us here on this side of the table, something happened to us, our emergency contacts will be contacted.
